Abstract excerpt
Prognosis of gastric cancer is dramatically improved by early diagnosis. Correa's cascade correlates the expression of some molecular markers with the progression of preneoplastic lesions toward carcinoma. This article reviews the diagnostic and prognostic values of molecular markers in complete (MUC2) and incomplete (MUC2, MUC5AC, and MUC6) intestinal metaplasia, gastric dysplasia/intra-epithelial neoplasia, and...
